State of the Game: June 2nd, 2016

Last week we had not one, but two State of the Games! With everyone knee deep in Clear Sky or battling their way through the Dark Zone, we can't get enough of the awesome stories you guys are telling!

The double UI bug was patched last week on PC and earlier this week on PS4. Make sure you download the patch if you haven’t! The patch for Xbox has not been deployed yet. We will update you as soon as possible!

For everything discussed on this morning’s State of the Game stream check out the video below!

Today’s maintenance was shortened after it was determined that the patch was unsuccessful. We will let you know as soon as possible when we will deploy the patch, that will bring Challenge Mode Clear Sky with it, so keep an eye out!

While we continue to address issues and improve the overall experience, we are also hard at work on the next update, Underground!

We are super excited to announce that we will also be at E3 this year! Stay tuned for more information.

Episode 8 of Operation ISAC is out. If you haven’t seen it, make sure you check it out below!

This week your task is to kill 50 elite enemies in the Dark Zone! As a reward you’ll receive Esmay’s Jacket to match the beanie from last week and High End Division Tech.

High End Division Tech

There has been a lot of discussions surrounding High End Division Tech. With the large volume of them found in the upper Dark Zone Gear Score brackets, the other materials are now bottlenecking crafting. As a reminder to a previous statement, crafting should be an alternative to drops. We will continue to monitor the feedback and economic statistics we see and make adjustments if necessary.

Weapons

Weapons are again a large discussion in the community. With a lot of the community calling for weapon balance we want to reassure you that we are working hard on making a full weapon pass and are considering a multitude of options. It’s important that this is done correctly and we are investing a large amount of time considering a variety of changes. Make sure to keep the suggestions and ideas coming!

We’ll kick it off with the 4th installment of StoneMountain64 “Yolo on The Division #4”!
